Dual- or quad-core models
The device will be powered by either a dual- or quad-core 1.2GHz processor.
Running either KitKat or Lollipop

Easy on the wallet
Though LG has not announced additional information about pricing and availability, we can expect these handsets to fall in line with other F-series phones, which hit somewhere around the $99 to $199 price range (or £64-£128 and AU$127-AU$255, conversion). Both phones will also have 4G and 3G variants.
